Soft Drinks and Energy Drinks

We have noticed a lot of students bringing soft drinks and energy drinks to school on a regular basis - please note this is not allowed. 

 

When students have high hits of sugar it makes concentrating difficult.  Most soft drinks also contain caffeine. Caffeine can cause headaches, upset stomach, jitteriness, and sleep problems. It’s also been associated with some behavioural problems and nervous system disorders.  In children, it doesn’t take much caffeine to produce effects.
